What do you think?

Middle name would be George.

Very sweet name, love the fact you want to give him the full name and not just a Nn.

Don't like it. Freddie is cute but Fred isn't.

Great name !

This is the exact same combination I suggested to DH earlier today... sadly he's not keen. Despite both names being linked to a grandparent on each side it apparently reminds him of a neighbour from 3 doors down brother who parks in an annoying spot when he (very occasionally) visits. I'm all for a veto with a good reason but DH's are becoming far too tenuous Hmm

I really like Frederick

starsshinebright · 16/09/2017 18:52

Frederick was one of my grandads names. George is also a family name but I think they sound good together!

I'm only 12 weeks so may be getting slightly ahead of myself.

This would've been dc4's name if it had been a boy (I'm having a girl) so I say go for it!

Trust me, Fred is cute on a baby and great on a 25 yr old Wink especially one with red hair.

Frederick is nice but I am not keen on Freddie or Fred.

ChocolateCrunch · 16/09/2017 20:48

Love it and Fred/Freddie

Frederick and Fred are great. Freddie less so to me, and very ubiquitous. George is also nice but also very popular. As long as that doesn't bother you then it's a good solid classic name
